PLEASE HELP! Restoring a backup from an External USB drive OR DVD

edited September 2015 in AOMEI Products Support

Please forgive my ignorance with Backupper 3 (Free) product. I need to Backup/Restore or Clone a Drive. I have 2 identical HP laptops I use for testing. My goal is to have a "perfect" image of my Win 7 Pro HD and then restore it to the 2nd Laptop's HD. The Target laptop / HD will always be in a blank - wiped/scrubbed/sanitized condition as I attempt to "restore" the baseline" OS and apps. My questions are:

1. Should  I "Clone" or "Backup Disk" the "master drive image" because I need to RESTORE it to the Target Drive from either External USB3 Drive (with the image on it). or Boot from a CD to restore

or

2. Is it possible to have an image restore Boot into the blank target laptop so that I do NOT need to install Windows 7 before having to do the restored image or backup?


Please help... Confused and greatful for help. Thanks much.
